My mom has a nazi cock in her mouth right now.

it’s just a joke. the for once thing is soooo clearly ironic.

I just want to make the point that there is absolutely no way a real plane evactuation in a emergency would go that smoothly, Germans or anybody else. Not a very realisitc test, although watching everyone go down the slides like lemmings is strangely mesmerizing… So who’s going to be the first to set it to the Benny Hill music?

I’m half-German. I call myself a Kraut. I was in no way offended and agree to me it’s like calling Americans “Yanks” or Canadians “Canucks” or the English “Brits” — it’s just a description of who we are. You people who are so quick to jump on EVERY little thing as potentially racist and offensive really need to get out more. It’s a joke to introduce a silly little Youtube clip, not a sociological discourse! Get a life!

To call people krauts is racisme, sure. And stupid. Result of borned peolpe who never travelled in their live. By the way: Kraut is eaten everywhere in the world. Also in some parts of Germany. And Sauerkraut is an french speciality (Elsass). Ever eaten Sauerkraut in Wine-Riesling-Sauce? Poor writer! A delicatesse!! And kraut can be smoked as well.

Better you smoke more or you tarvel as too write such nonsens….

Wow, over-reaction to the title, guys. I mean, would any of you have been offended if it was a video of Americans getting off a plane and the title read “Yanks Off a Plane”..?
You guys ever heard of a genre of music called krautrock? the word is used a lot without any negative connotations, I think so at least.
However, if you guys who wait around for new RS posts on here to blast them for *something*, then I think it should have been the “for once… to *save* lives…” line. Trust me, I’m all about letting RS have it. Boo, them.

Airbus is going to need more than a cool little video and the bumbling A380 to save it.

but the caption, particularly the phrase “for once” is unnecessary.

I’m German and don’t feel the title is offensive..however the caption is unnecessary… ohh wow ANOTHER joke about the Holocaust, your so badass coxe, you just have big huge balls for putting that up.

Those of us who aren’t Starbucks liberals are getting confused here… What exactly is considered socially offensive and who the hell decides?

Cowards - brave enough to throw racist terms around on your website but too spineless to take the criticism that results. Why don’t you give the interns the rest of the day off and do the censorship yourselves? You’ll feel better, more yourself.

The voice of the counter-culture is now, finally, irrevocably, the voice of AmeriKKKa. Drop dead.

go read the ny times and tell yourself words are this country’s problems.

If you expected anything less than that title, go read your local town’s newspaper. Seriously.

Since when did sensibilities become a touchy subject.

Krauts Off a Plane is a dandy tag for a rather obvious ploy by Airbus to lift its dying stock price.

Anybody ever heard of Sour Kraut? Guess what? It’s German! For anybody here who follows hockey; the Boston Bruins had a line called the Kraut Line back in the 40’s. Enough political correctness and sensitivity, people. I, for one, am damn sick of it.

I’m German. Are any Germans here REALLY offended by the word ‘Kraut’, I mean REALLY?
It wouldn’t even matter to me if the headline writer was Italian or something. ‘Kraut’ in my book is about as offensive as ‘Kracker.’ I really couldn’t care less.

I suppose it’s cool to be anal about political correctness in our culture, but I think there are some times when we need to just get over it…

Agreed, poor taste with the slur.

Yeah, but is there a kocher meal?

That title is about as bad as the movie it’s referencing

Way to reinforce double standards, RS.

Why would writers/editors with any class be interested in working for RS? Think before you post.

What up with the slur RS? You need some better writers/editors.

Would you expect anything else from RS?

That’s a great video but… why’d you have to use an ethnic slur in the title? You wouldn’t have said “Waps off a plane” or “Kykes on a plane”, would you?
